Hello and welcome to the May issue of Tomorrow’s Contract Floors
We are well and truly heading towards summer and I hope you’ve enjoyed the recent bank holidays. With another long weekend at the end of this month and the summer break just around the corner, many of us will be planning to get away.
With this in mind, we have a special focus on the Hotel and Leisure sector where Tarkett offers expert advice on how best to use flooring design to create that all important memorable experience for hospitality settings. Also on the subject of
leisure, we feature a case study from Polyflor where their sheet vinyl has been used to create a fun train track design for a Thomas the Tank Engine theme park.
When designing to create a positive perception for visitors it’s important to
remember that first impressions are vital. This is where specifying and maintaining an appropriate entrance matting system pays off. See our section on Entrances
and Front of House for information from Milliken, COBA and Host Von Schrader on making the right choice.
This month's materials focus on Floor Tiles has also taken a hospitality theme
as ceramic tiles are increasingly specified in bars and restaurants. Recent case studies from Cerramique Internationale and Solus Ceramics demonstrate the versatility of designing with tile.
I hope you enjoy the read and have a lovely bank holiday weekend! CIRCULATION & DISTRIBUTION
